I am here for Friends

About Me



I'm a nonconformist & a rebel, but not in the cool way. I work hard daily to find agreement with this guy: "The smallest details of this world derive infinite significance from their relation to an unseen divine order."

My Interests

Baking, because I'm convinced it's therapy. I also love swimming in the ocean or a lake; amusement parks; logic; I like plaid; the girl scout thin mint (remarkably long shelf life); stained glass art; dreaming-awake states; character transformation; puppets; time; touching Bellini; glamour; philosophy; horror; werewolf costume collections. Typical interests.

Pink Floyd Grantchester Meadows

Hopefully some old friends; or, Forrest J Ackerman; I like superfans; or Charles Sanders Peirce; Nimoy; Dicky; Dino; Nader, yes Nader; maybe Crispin Glover; Hans Gruber, though he died. The Lovely Stephen Fry. Also, people who are nonconformists & rebels, but not necessarily in the cool way.Or
